"It’s not the team you support, it’s the club you should support. The team on the pitch will ebb and flow because that’s the nature of sport. No team has ever been successful decade on decade. The club has the history and that’s the passion you should have."

"We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven into an age of unreason if we dig deep into our history and remember we are not descended from fearful men" Edward R Murrow

"Little by little, we have been brought into the present condition in which we are able neither to tolerate the evils from which we suffer, nor the remedies we need to cure them." - Livy

"I think that progress has been made by two flames that have always been burning in the human heart. The flame of anger against injustice and the flame of hope that you can build a better world" - Tony Benn

It crudely and wrongly mocks her appearance but misogynistic is a stretch!

On a badge level, yes, but the general tendency to get abusive about female politicians' appearances? What else would you call it?

It might even be forgivable if it was particularly personal, like the "Wee Jimmy Kranky" stuff that Sturgeon is getting - that at least sits fairly squarely in a tradition of mocking the odd appearance of politicians of all sexes.

But "old woman, wrinkly tits"?

I'll be honest, this thread hasn't really gone in the direction I thought it might after 5 posts.

So erm...Ted Cruz is an awful bastard, eh?

He looks wrong. I can't quite put my finger on it, sort of like his face is melting or something.

He's caught somewhere between the look of a man who fears he's going to be found out any second and the look of a man who has tried to sneak out a fart and now thinks he might have followed through.

Is Jeb Bush a shoe in for GOP? Christ they are like those knock a mole game - every time you hit one on the head another one pops up.

There's a union buster called Scott Walker who is current governor of Wisconsin that fivethirtyeight are giving a very good chance to. He's relatively young, relatively fresh faced and composed of 91% pure evil so he could do well.
